Crossniq+ is a speed-focused, arcade-style puzzle game inspired by "y2k-era" visual design - a tribute to highly polished, small-scope Japanese games from the late 90's. In Crossniq+, the name of the game is re-arranging a grid of tiles to form "crosses" - rows and column of the same color. You can move tiles up, down, left or right - but moving them off the edge of the grid makes them wrap back to the other side, offering a unique and brain-bending challenge. Make crosses quickly and set up multi-crosses to earn bonuses.

I got this one for a buck or two on the Switch. It's a very simple little puzzle game, but it's not bad and works well for a quick pick-up-and-play handheld session. The goal is to move rows or columns of colored blocks until you make a "cross" -- as in one intersecting row and column all the same color. You need to do this many times, and quickly -- if the timer runs out it's game over, and it takes a completed cross to reset it. The difficulty picks up once you have columns and rows that can't be moved past certain points, or can't be moved at all (and so you'll have to work around those limitations).

And that's all there is to it? Again, simple little game, pretty similar to Yoshi's Cookie. For me it's lacking something to keep me hooked though? I also wish it had a dark mode, because it's all a bright bright white, you'll get blinded if you play in bed before going to sleep.
